breaking after 1 year: Is it just me or did anyone else have problems after warranty expired?
1297
I found a partial workaround solution for my problem (like yours) of the unit turning off a few seconds after turning it on. I press (and hold) the Stop button, and then the On button, and continue to press them both until the blue SA-CD light and the blue MultiChannel light go off, and then back on again. After that, the unit works ! Except that the LCD panel remains blank. Many (perhaps all) of the front panel buttons work. I still need to experiment to see if the remote works, and to what extent. Sony gave me the choice of a refurbished unit, or to repair mine, under warranty. Anybody got an opinion on which is the way to go ?

Contact the manufacturer and see if you can get that fixed. It should still have the basic 1 year warranty.

Umm I'm pretty sure it's a limited one year warranty. I personally haven't had any problems

I've had mine for a year with no problems. I think it's a great unit for the price.

Mine did too just after the warrantee expired. I noticed in comments from other customers that they had similar problems. I'm afraid that you're stuck with a worthless piece of plastic.

I haven't had any problems, maybe you could still get it fixed through the one year warranty. Good luck

I've had no problem with mine. I think you need to contact amazon regarding a warranty. Hope this helps

Mine stopped working in a little over a year (frayed wires from use) . So I didn't pursuit the warranty. I did open it up and fix it myself. Challenging but not impossible/impractical.

I have the same issue and am trying to contact the seller for a replacement. 1 year warranty?

That sucks :( Mine still works a year later. Must have gotten a bad one! I really have no idea if there is a warranty. Sorry!

I had this issue as well. I was told by Amazon to go back to the manufacturer, which I did. They have never responded to my inquiry. I have resigned myself to the fact that I bought a piece of garbage. Sad thing is, I paid about $50 prior to Christmas, and when it broke, the price was about $25....double whammy. I would never recommend this product to anyone. Sorry to hear you had the same issue.

I'm not sure... Mine ended up breaking too after a year but I just got rid of it. I didn't even look for a replacement, but they might have one! Not sure.

Same happened to me. Just inform the seller n they should refund you on ur purchase. There's a 1 years warranty I think

call the company, this happened to mine and they replaced it. It has a one year warranty.

1 year limited, go with a square trade warranty they replace if anything happens

As of this time, not end user serviceable. But once it is out of warranty if they break I'll let you know. =)
